Resumo: Nitrate content determination is important for food quality evaluation, but its determination is affected by interferences. The objective of this work was to compare nitrate determination procedures for vegetable tissues. In dry matter samples from three lettuce cultivars that received five levels of nitrogen in a greenhouse experiment, nitrate was extracted with deionized water and its determination was made by the cadmium column method, the distillation method, the salicylic acid method, and the method using the reductive mixture with zinc. The salicylic acid method and that of reductive mixture with zinc overestimated the nitrate content in lettuce dry matter, because they were influenced by the color of dry matter extracts and other interferences. The cadmium column and the distillation methods are the best for nitrate determination in vegetable tissues, but the simplicity and lower cost of distillation in relation to cadmium column method suggest that the first one must be recommended.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi comparar procedimentos de quantificação de nitrato em tecido vegetal. Em amostras de matéria seca da parte aérea de três cultivares de alface adubadas com cinco doses de nitrogênio, provenientes de experimento realizado em casa de vegetação, foi feita extração de nitrato com água desionizada e quantificação, utilizando os procedimentos da coluna redutora contendo cádmio, da destilação, do ácido salicílico e da mistura redutora contendo zinco. Os procedimentos do ácido salicílico e da mistura redutora contendo zinco superestimam os teores de nitrato na matéria seca de alface, pois são mais sujeitos à presença de interferentes e ao efeito da cor do extrato. Os procedimentos da coluna redutora contendo cádmio e o da destilação são os mais adequados na quantificação de nitrato em tecido vegetal. Contudo, a simplicidade e o menor custo da destilação em relação à coluna redutora indicam que a destilação deve ser recomendada.Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária BrasileiraMantovani, José RicardoCruz, Mara Cristina Pessôa daFerreira, Manoel EvaristoBarbosa, José Carlos2005-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/6921Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira; v.40, n.1, jan. 2005; 53-59Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira; v.40, n.1, jan. 2005; 53-591678-39210100-104xreponame:Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/6921/3969info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2014-09-23T18:33:24Zoai:ojs.seer.sct.embrapa.br:article/6921Revistahttp://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pabPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phppab@sct.embrapa.br || sct.pab@embrapa.br1678-39210100-204Xopendoar:2014-09-23T18:33:24Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
